Sky TV users are in for some disappointing news as a recent product release is set to be discontinued next month. Sky Live, introduced in 2023 as an innovative entertainment device, is being shut down permanently on December 4. This accessory, designed to enhance the viewing experience on Sky’s Glass TV through motion sensors and a built-in camera, offered interactive games like Fruit Ninja, Stingray Karaoke, and Peppa Pig: Jump and Giggle for a monthly subscription fee of £6. Additionally, it facilitated home fitness monitoring and enabled Zoom calls and shared content viewing with friends and family.
Despite its promising features, Sky Live did not gain the expected popularity, leading to its upcoming discontinuation. Sky assures users that games like the recently launched Who Wants To Be A Millionaire will still be available, albeit without the need for an extra subscription. A Sky representative highlighted the company’s commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction, emphasizing the continuous improvement of their product offerings.
Affected users will receive email notifications detailing the discontinuation process, including refund options and a convenient return process with free postage. Sky is redirecting its focus towards enhancing product simplicity, content quality, and customer service, ensuring a better overall experience for its users.
